Wednesday Update #3! Post-Mortem!

So yes, Beyond Lifeline is done.  Good.

If that sounds bitter, it kind of is.  I started out with so much enthusiasm and some great imagery to work with (especially the imagery I was going to use for the ending).  By the midway point, I was exhausted and just didn't want to bother.

It was a good practice run for when I head into Clash 2.  That game is going to be pretty long.  Its going to be in development a while most likely.  And I'm still going to be working my day job and doing college studies and any other responsibilities I have IRL.  I now know that yes, even after a dev break I will get exhausted and I will need to be prepared for it.

But Beyond Lifeline wasn't all bad.  I got to do ocean stuff again; marine biology is one of my biggest passions, but somehow I rarely get the chance to put that into game form.  Like I mentioned, the AI-generated imagery is fantastic and I'm so amazed at how well it looks.  And I finally got Baiji and Brielle into something finished, these characters are pretty good.

Whatever my feelings about it, its out there now.  As long as people like it, I'm happy.
